In vivo introduction of transgenes into mouse sciatic nerve cells in situ using viral vectors Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The myelin sheath is essential for the rapid and efficient propagation of action potentials. However, our understanding of the basic molecular mechanisms that regulate myelination, demyelination and remyelination is limited. Schwann cells produce myelin in the peripheral nervous system and remain associated with the axons of peripheral neurons throughout axonal migration to the target. Owing to the intimate relationship between these cell ...
In Vivo Introduction of Transgenes into Mouse Sciatic Nerve Cells Using Viral Vectors Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Myelinated fibers are essential for the rapid and efficient propagation of nerve information throughout the body. These fibers result from an intimate crosstalk between myelinating glia and the myelinated axons and, because it is difficult to fully reproduce these interactions in vitro, the basic molecular mechanisms that regulate myelination, demyelination, and remyelination remain unclear. Schwann cells produce myelin in the peripheral ...
